Lesson
Coping with Stress in Middle
5 and Late Adolescence
Stress is the condition that individual may feel when he/she is struggling to
accept changes with physical, mental, and emotional responses. It may give tension
which will lead into various responses such as anger, frustration, and nervousness.
You can experience stress because of what the environment, situation, body and
thought produced.
Stress is a term that has been linked to varied concepts and operations. For
some researchers it is stimulus, for others it is an inferred inner state and for still
others it is an observable response to stimulus or situation. Thus the use of the
term is somewhat hazardous because of the lack of consensus that prevails in
stress research. (Dohrenwend & Dohrenwend, 1974).
Some other researchers prefer to use the term stressor to refer to events that
can cause stress, the organism’s biological and behavioral response to the stressor
(Davison & Neale, 1994, p.191)
Stress as Stimulus
Aside from being a reaction (or response) stress is also a stimulus as well as
a relational condition between person and the situation they are in (Feist and
Rosenberg 2012)
-It is caused by situations that may be life threatening or life changing, such
as separation, moving into a new home, or having a new job. These situations or
events are often called stressors.
Stress as Response
It is the way the body reacts to challenging situations. This involve the
interaction between the hormones, glands, and nervous system where the
adrenalin glands drives the production of cortisol or better known as “Stress
hormones”

But life also can bring situations that might keep us stressed for a few days,
weeks, or months. Even if we're not always thinking about this stress, it can be like
a background soundtrack playing in our lives.
If you're like most people, you've faced these kinds of lasting stressful
situations. Feeling unprepared or unhappy about the situation increases the
stress. Stressful situations can wear us down over time. Finding ways to deal with
them can help us grow strong.
